Detailed Answer:
The something else that I can think of , is vulvodynia.
I believe you have not found a proper Specialist to treat that yet.
Try a second regime of Valtrex, it might work, you never know !

Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
What was the blood work last time ?
I do not have access to it to compare.
Why were you given a refill on Valtrex ?
Did she ask you to have a repeat course ?
I mean, why do you still have the tablets with you if you finished the primary course ?

Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
I have looked at the lesions you have had, and they are NOT suggestive of herpes at all.
But the blood work points towards herpes.
Yes, it is very confusing, even for me.
I would say, wait and get an opinion from XXXXXXX
If they suggest, take a repeat course for herpes.
